They took place after Tehran asserted that its interim deal with the U.S. allows it to manage shipping in the strait for now, and objected to U.S. efforts to support a route through the strait that passes close to Oman instead. The strait was considered an international waterway before the war.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. military on Saturday said its recently reimposed naval blockade against Iran continued, with a dozen commercial ships redirected, two disabled and two boarded. U.S. forces &#8220;remain highly vigilant, focused, lethal, and ready,&#8221; it added.<\/p>\n<p>Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday on Fox News&#8217; &#8220;Sunday Morning Futures&#8221; that he supports Mr. Trump&#8217;s pressure on Iran to end its nuclear program. During his upcoming visit to Washington, Netanyahu suggested he wouldn&#8217;t share new intelligence with Mr. Trump and instead listen to &#8220;what he has in mind, because I think in many ways, it&#8217;s his decision.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>CBS\/AP<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"content__post--3a6107dd-0cd1-4685-8941-1e2e38c454b8\">\n            <a name=\"post-update-3a6107dd\" class=\"post-update__anchor-link\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>            <time class=\"post-update__time-ago is-live\" datetime=\"2026-07-27T06:34:55-0400\"><br \/>\n              13m ago<br \/>\n            <\/time><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"post-update__headline\">Talks between Iran and Oman moving in positive direction, official says<\/h2>\n<div class=\"post-update__bodytext\">\n<p>Discussions between Iranian officials and their Omani counterparts over the last two days have been constructive, one Iranian official told CBS News on Sunday. Talks to reopen the Strait of Hormuz are also moving in a positive direction, the official said.<\/p>\n<p>This diplomacy aims to reopen waterways around the Strait. It&#8217;s directly linked to the U.S. halting strikes on Iran for the last two consecutive nights, although President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth say the Strait is open already, and the U.S. controls it.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Central Command paused bombings Friday and Saturday after 13 straight days of strikes. Tehran also paused bombings on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz told &#8220;Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan&#8221; on Sunday that the pause was aimed at &#8220;giving diplomacy some space.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s giving diplomacy a little bit of time. The president tried diplomacy last year, tried it this year. He is a president of peace. He is giving diplomacy a chance,&#8221; said Waltz, who added that the U.S. will gauge how things are going in the coming days. &#8220;Make no mistake, assets, additional military assets, are moving into the region. The regime should believe the president when he says they&#8217;re locked and loaded.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a letter dated July 10, Trump gave formal notification to Congress that hostilities
